    PREPARATION

    Prepare

    • In a bowl, combine water (2 tbsp) and Seasoned Coating Mix to create a crumbly texture.
    • In another bowl, beat 1 egg.
    • Pat chicken tenderloins dry.

    Heat

    • Fill skillet halfway with oil and place over medium-high heat to reach 375° F. Oil is ready to use when a pinch of breading dropped in the oil sizzles without burning.

    Fry

    • Moisten chicken tenderloins thoroughly in egg wash and then the dry crumble mix, pressing firmly until fully coated.
    • Add chicken to hot oil and cook each side for 2-3 minutes, until golden brown.
    • Remove from pan when juices run clear and internal temperature is 165° F.
    • Enjoy!

    PRO TIPS

    Don't Crowd the Fryer

    Don’t overcrowd your fryer! That will drop the temperature of the oil. If you know you’ll have a crowded pot, be sure to start a bit hotter than the desired fry temperature.

    Crispy Fried Chicken

    To create craggy pockets of fried-ness, dribble a few tablespoons of buttermilk over your batter and rub it together to create small clumps.
